Allow Me to Introduce Myself…
HEY EVERYONE!!
Welcome to Talks with Ebony.
My name is Ebony Sturrup and I am the owner of Epiphany Counseling and Professional Services, LLC. Since this is the first time you’re visiting my blog I figured it would be best to begin with an introduction of myself, how I became a therapist, what my approaches to counseling are and what to expect from this blog.
I originally studied English at Lane College in Jackson, Tn where I received my Bachelors degree in 2007. I became a middle/high school teacher directly after graduation, where I recognized the great need for counselors in the community. Being an educator has allowed me to develop a deeper passion for helping others and nurturing their emotional growth. A few years after entering the teaching profession, I naturally decided to pursue a dual degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling so that I could assist others outside of the classroom. I completed my Masters degree in 2012 and have since pursued a license with the State of Florida. Currently I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist and Licensed Mental Health Counselor with the state of Florida.
Although I offer a traditional approach to those who request it, I specialize in a Faith-Based counseling. With this approach I help to build an understanding of life’s issues using mental health therapy with a foundation of biblical principles. Change is not always a simple process, but it is an opportunity to heal. Being apart of that positive change with clients is a rewarding experience, rather it be through individual, family, couples, or group counseling.
This blog is an opportunity to address topics that we may have questions or concerns about. Every issue and concern MATTERS..and because of that I would love to address them. Expect to see tips, techniques and new approaches to everyday concerns (Self, Relationships, Family, Work, etc).
Please contact me at 954-744-4369 if you feel that you will benefit from one of the services offered. Appointments are required. I invite you to explore the rest of my website to learn more about how I can help you overcome a challenge in your life and provide you with tools to enjoy life.
